    All of those U-Joints and half shafts spinning in the back makes for a cool look!

  10. It can't be a good looking T Bucket because it's not one and nether is the white one you posted. Yes they are cool but OT for this thread. JW

    I think it's fine. Sure it's not a "Ford T bucket" but it's built in the exact vain as a T bucket with a Ford Flathead V8 no less. Total WAG but is it a Whippet body/grill?

    I remember that car from the magazines with the Pontiac and Rochester fuel injection. I wonder how long it stayed on there. They had a reputation for being hard to start, finicky. I’ll bet it ended up with 3x2s or an M/T cross ram and a couple AFBs.

    I seldom comment on others postings, but this one just got under my skin. That roadster was WAY more in keeping with the traditional (pre 1965) parameters of this whole board than the majority of recent posts.

    I wonder if @HOTRODPRIMER really meant to exclude other makes when he started this thread.
